We all love taking photos of flowers, but how often do we feel like we haven’t quite captured the soul of the subject? Whether you are battling the wind and rain outdoors or trying to set up a creative still life on your kitchen table, flower photography requires a specific set of skills both behind the camera and in the digital darkroom.
In this special 5-part Camversation workshop we are doing something a little different! We will be using a hybrid teaching style that has become a real community favourite. You will see Molly in action on location via recordings we made together, watching exactly how she works in the field, before switching to a live editing session to see how she brings those raw files to life. It offers the best of both worlds!
Crucially, we believe the best way to learn is by doing. As the series moves along Molly will be providing a selection of her own images for you to download and edit. This gives you the opportunity to practise the techniques on the same professional files you see on screen, helping you master the processing steps before applying them to your own work.
Schedule
Session 1 (March 25th): The Great Outdoors Part 1. We head outside to look at composition, light and managing the elements, followed by a live edit of the images captured.
Session 2 (April 8th): The Great Outdoors Part 2. Continuing our fieldwork, we dive deeper into creative settings and aperture choices with more live processing techniques.
Session 3 (April 22nd): The Indoor Studio. Do not let the weather stop you! We move inside to explore still life arrangements..
Session 4 (May 6th): Creative Techniques & Lightboxes. Discover the magic of lightbox photography and creative indoor setups. We will also review the Edit Challenge where you get to play with Molly's raw files.
